Three-point revolution

The three-point revolution or the 3-point revolution refers to the rapid strategic growth of National Basketball Association (NBA) offenses and defenses towards attempting three-point field goals, beginning in the mid-2010s and progressing to the present day. After the introduction of the three point line to the NBA in 1979, NBA teams averaged 2.8 attempts per game. By the 2018–19 season, NBA teams averaged 32.0 attempts per game. Basketball figureheads such as Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Steve Kerr, James Harden, Daryl Morey and Mike D'Antoni are all credited with helping precipitate the NBA Three-Point Revolution.
